Kepuhi Beach — Attraction in Hawaii

Kepuhi Beach Resort

This ‘resort’ is actually a property that was amazing in its heyday (former Sheraton property back in the 1970’s) but now has been reduced just a few operating condo’s listed on VRBO / Airbnb ..

Does (still) have a very nice and well maintained beachside pool but other than that, probably nothing special about staying at any of the condos on this property. With that said, there is an adjacent property that might be a better experience (Ke’NaniKai) .. (?)

The rock point on the southern end of the beach takes the brutal waves in splendor, I've seen the waves crash 20-30’ in the air. We saw green flashes at two sunsets, heard about but never saw...

Absolutely beautiful and an amazing property. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. I love staying at these condos. So beautiful and convenient. If ever come back to Molokai I’m definitely staying here again. Amazing sense of community, the locals who live here are nice and welcoming. It’s what you make of it here. You will need a car to go grocery shopping and explore but if you don’t mind staying stationary and getting your food from Da Store paying a little more than usual,...
